I am an experienced Staffordshire artist who enjoys painting in oils. My work is mainly inspired by my natural surroundings. Over the years, I have entered prestigious art competitions.

I am delighted to be having a solo Pleinair Exhibition at a fabulous art studio and gallery in Newcastle-Under-Lyme. Running from the 6th of July to the 24th of July, a very warm welcome awaits you.

A Selection of Art Work Being Prepared for the Exhibition

Entitled ‘Discovering Pleinair ‘ as, for the past three years, I’ve been discovering my local surroundings with fresh eyes and a renewed vision. I have also travelled further afield, in the continuous search for interesting subjects to paint.

The upcoming exhibition is a collection of over 70 pleinair works, covering a wide range of subjects from landscapes, seascapes, urban landscapes and still lifes.

Spring Lambs Painted at Tixall Farm

This exhibition explores my growing interest in our natural surroundings, and goes on to explore the dual challenges of experimenting with style and colour. Over the last three years I’ve learnt so much, and developed (I hope!) as a unique Pleinair Artist.

I am continuing to enjoy the challenge of outdoor painting, and later this year I am going continental for the first time, with a planned painting trip to Italy.

Where and When

The exhibition will be held at The Art Studio Gallery in Newcastle–Under–Lyme from Saturday 6th of July to Wednesday the 24th of July.

Opening Preview

Opening preview is Saturday, the 6th of July from 2 pm – 4 pm, and I would love to see you there.
